Loft Conversions Where to start

There’s a lot to take into account when setting the wheels in motion for a high-quality loft conversion. Lucky for you, Bluestone is here to help with every step of the process from start to finish.

You’ll need to consider carefully:

Size and design

Purpose

Budget

Planning permission

Timeframe

Chosen contractor

The process begins by considering what types of loft conversions are suitable for your property. Whatever the shape, size and type of home you live in, we create 100% bespoke loft conversions with meticulous attention to detail.

You’ll need to think carefully about how you intend to use the converted space upon completion of the project. Which includes the features, conveniences and finishing touches you’d like to add to the conversion. Of course, your chosen budget will also play a role in determining the type of conversion you can afford.

As for planning permission, you can either get in touch with your local council office yourself, or we can help with this too. Finding a builder means choosing a local specialist with not only a flawless reputation, but extensive experience and the required builder public liability insurance to operate legally. Not to mention, a builder capable of getting the job done quickly and with minimal disruption.

It’s a lot to take into account, but the Bluestone team is here to help with every step of the process. For more information or to discuss a quotation, we’re standing by to take your call.

Do you need planning permission for a loft conversion?

When going about any major home improvements or extension works, it’s a good idea to first find out if planning permission is required. In the case of a loft conversion, most of the time you will not need to obtain any specific planning permission to go ahead with the project. However, this all depends on the type of property you live in, its age, location, history and the type of loft conversion you intend to choose. As you sometimes do need planning permission for a loft conversion, it’s best to find out for sure before going ahead.

If you’re unsure how to go about the process of checking if you need planning permission and obtaining permission if required, we can help. Bluestone can guide you through the process of contacting the necessary office to see what kinds of building rights are required, before going ahead with the project as a whole. This way, you can be assured of a streamlined process and avoid complications along the way. It’s all part of the comprehensive service package Bluestone offers each and every customer from start to finish!
